I don’t really know much about the regulations myself, aside from the fact that if I go to get my prescription filled even a day or two early they tell me they can’t do it, which is really annoying. Although the head pharmacist seems to have the ability to override that because there was one time when the girl told me no she heard and called out “it’s okay” and then filled it for me.

The pharmacy I use just started requiring ID for narcotics about… no, exactly… 3.5 years ago. I remember because I was picking up meds for my dad and they asked for ID and I was confused because they never did before.

I meant to ask my doctor about this letter thing, because I don’t understand it, but I forgot. But it depends a lot on the individual doctors, their knowledge of the medications, and ADHD, and any preconceptions they might have.
